--------D-26---------------------------------
INT 26 - DOS 1+ - ABSOLUTE DISK WRITE (except partitions > 32M)
	AL = drive number (00h = A:, 01h = B:, etc)
	CX = number of sectors to write (not FFFFh)
	DX = starting logical sector number (0000h - highest sector on drive)
	DS:BX -> data to write
Return: CF clear if successful
	CF set on error
	    AH = status (see #02547)
	    AL = error code (same as passed to INT 24 in DI)
	    AX = 0207h if more than 64K sectors on drive -- use new-style call
	may destroy all other registers except segment registers
Notes:	original flags are left on stack, and must be popped by caller
	this call bypasses the DOS filesystem, though DOS 5+ invalidates any
	  disk buffers referencing sectors which are written with this call
	examination of CPWIN386.CPL indicates that if this call fails with
	  error 0408h on an old-style (<32M) call, one should retry the
	  call with the high bit of the drive number in AL set
	Novell DOS 7 decides whether the old-style or new-style (>32M) version
	  of INT 26 must be used solely on the basis of the partition's size,
	  thus forcing use of the new-style call even for data in the first
	  32M of the partition
	Windows98 will display an error message and deliberately hang the
	  system on attempted write to any hard disk if neither bit 7 of the
	  Extended Drive Info byte nor bit 6 of "DOS_FLAG" (List-of-Lists+60h)
	  is set
BUGS:	DOS 3.1 through 3.3 set the word at ES:[BP+1Eh] to FFFFh if AL is an
	  invalid drive number
	DR DOS 3.41 will return with a jump instead of RETF, leaving the
	  wrong number of bytes on the stack; use the huge-partition version
	  (INT 26/CX=FFFFh) for all partition sizes under DR DOS 3.41
SeeAlso: INT 13/AH=03h,INT 25,INT 26/CX=FFFFh,INT 21/AX=7305h
--------D-26----CXFFFF-----------------------
INT 26 - DOS 3.31+ - ABSOLUTE DISK WRITE (32M-2047M hard-disk partition)
	CX = FFFFh
	AL = drive number (0=A, 1=B, etc)
	DS:BX -> disk write packet (see #02552)
Return: CF clear if successful
	CF set on error
	    AH = status (see #02547)
	    AL = error code (same as passed to INT 24 in DI)
	may destroy all other registers except segment registers
Notes:	partition is potentially >32M (and requires this form of the call) if
	  bit 1 of the device attribute word in the device driver is set
	original flags are left on stack, and must be removed by caller
	this call bypasses the DOS filesystem, though DOS 5+ invalidates any
	  disk buffers referencing sectors which are written with this call
	for FAT32 drives (which may be up to 2TB in size), use INT 21/AX=7305h
	Windows98 will display an error message and deliberately hang the
	  system on attempted write to any hard disk if neither bit 7 of the
	  Extended Drive Info byte nor bit 6 of "DOS_FLAG" (List-of-Lists+60h)
	  is set
SeeAlso: INT 13/AH=03h,INT 25/CX=FFFFh,INT 26,INT 21/AX=7305h

Format of disk write packet:
Offset	Size	Description	(Table 02552)
 00h	DWORD	sector number
 04h	WORD	number of sectors to read
 06h	DWORD	transfer address
SeeAlso: #02548
--------G-26---------------------------------
INT 26 - COMTROL HOSTESS i/ISA DEBUGGER - ENTER/EXIT EXTENDED ADDRESSING MODE
	???
Return: ???
SeeAlso: INT 23"COMTROL",INT 27"COMTROL"
--------D-27---------------------------------
INT 27 - DOS 1+ - TERMINATE AND STAY RESIDENT
	DX = number of bytes to keep resident (max FFF0h)
	CS = segment of PSP
Return: never
Notes:	this is an obsolete call
	INT 22, INT 23, and INT 24 are restored from the PSP
	does not close any open files
	the minimum number of bytes which will remain resident is 110h for
	  DOS 2.x and 60h for DOS 3.0+; there is no minimum for DOS 1.x, which
	  implements this service in COMMAND.COM rather than the DOS kernel
SeeAlso: INT 21/AH=31h
--------G-27---------------------------------
INT 27 - COMTROL HOSTESS i/ISA DEBUGGER - INVOKE REMOTE TURBO DEBUGGER KERNEL
	???
Return: ???
Desc:	invoke a copy of the remote Turbo Debugger kernel on the Hostess i
	  controller
SeeAlso: INT 20"COMTROL",INT 26"COMTROL"
--------D-28---------------------------------
INT 28 C - DOS 2+ - DOS IDLE INTERRUPT
	SS:SP = top of MS-DOS stack for I/O functions
Return: all registers preserved
Desc:	This interrupt is invoked each time one of the DOS character input
	  functions loops while waiting for input.  Since a DOS call is in
	  progress even though DOS is actually idle during such input waits,
	  hooking this function is necessary to allow a TSR to perform DOS
	  calls while the foreground program is waiting for user input.	 The
	  INT 28h handler may invoke any INT 21h function except functions
	  00h through 0Ch.
Notes:	under DOS 2.x, the critical error flag (the byte immediately after the
	  InDOS flag) must be set in order to call DOS functions 50h/51h from
	  the INT 28h handler without destroying the DOS stacks.
	calls to INT 21/AH=3Fh,40h from within an INT 28 handler may not use a
	  handle which refers to CON
	at the time of the call, the InDOS flag (see INT 21/AH=34h) is normally
	  set to 01h; if larger, DOS is truly busy and should not be reentered
	the default handler is an IRET instruction
	supported in OS/2 compatibility box
	the _MS-DOS_Programmer's_Reference_ for DOS 5.0 incorrectly documents
	  this interrupt as superseded
	the performance of NetWare Lite servers (and probably other peer-to-
	  peer networks) can be dramatically improved by calling INT 28
	  frequently from an application's idle loop
SeeAlso: INT 21/AH=34h,INT 2A/AH=84h,INT 2F/AX=1680h
--------U-289999-----------------------------
INT 28 u - PCXDUMP v9.00+ - INSTALLATION CHECK
	AX = 9999h
Return: AX = AAAAh if installed
	    CX = version number * 100 (example: 03A2h = 930 = v9.30)
	    DL = interrupt used by the dump function (see #02553)
		(00h if call not available)
	    BX = CS of PCXDUMP's INT 28 handler (undocumented)
	    ES = segment of PCXDUMP's memory block (v9.30, undocumented)
Program: PCXDUMP is a shareware screen grabber saving in PCX format
Notes:	if DL<>00h a dump can be requested by calling INT DL as shown
	  below (the user can choose the interrupt number at installation
	  time); if DL=00h the dump function can be called only by hotkeys
	  (this is the default)

(Table 02553)
Call PCXDUMP screen-dump function with:
	INT xx
	AX = 1234h
	BX = dump type
	    0000h Color dump
	    0001h Immediate color dump
	    0002h Black/White dump
	    0003h Immediate B/W dump
	    0004h Inverted B/W dump
	    0005h Gray scaled dump
	    0006h Inverted gray scaled dump
	    0007h Text screen dump to text file
	    0008h Text screen dump to ansi file
Return: nothing
Notes:	if BX=0001h, 0003h, 0007h or 0008h the whole screen will be
	  dumped; the other valid values will draw a selection frame
	  on the screen except in text modes (text modes allow only
	  full screen dumps)
	this function doesn't perform the dump, it only requests it;
	  the dump will be performed after a few milliseconds if it's
	  safe to do so, thus the author recommends putting a 60 ms delay
	  after this call
--------D-29---------------------------------
INT 29 C - DOS 2+ - FAST CONSOLE OUTPUT
	AL = character to display
Return: nothing
	BX may be destroyed by some versions of DOS 3.3
Notes:	automatically called when writing to a device with bit 4 of its device
	  driver header set (see also INT 21/AH=52h)
	COMMAND.COM v3.2 and v3.3 compare the INT 29 vector against the INT 20
	  vector and assume that ANSI.SYS is installed if the segment is larger
	the default handler under DOS 2.x and 3.x simply calls INT 10/AH=0Eh
	the default handler under DESQview 2.2 understands the <Esc>[2J
	  screen-clearing sequence, calls INT 10/AH=0Eh for all others

--------N-2A0300-----------------------------
INT 2A - NETWORK - CHECK DIRECT I/O
	AX = 0300h
	DS:SI -> ASCIZ device name (may be full path or only drive specifier--
		  must include the colon)
Return: CF clear if direct physical addressing (INT 13,INT 25) permissible
	CF set if access via files only
Notes:	do not use direct disk accesses if this function returns CF set or the
	  device is redirected (INT 21/AX=5F02h)
	use AH=00h to determine whether the network is installed; if not,
	  direct physical access is allowed
	may take some time to execute, so programs which need to check
	  frequently should save the result of the first call
	this function is called by the DOS kernel on INT 25 and INT 26
	supported by PC LAN Program, LAN Manage, LANtastic, NetWare, 10NET,
	  etc.

	  etc.
	NetWare 2.15 NetBIOS emulator returns CF clear if successful, CF set
	  on error
	PC LAN Program defines any non-zero return value in AH as an error
	  indicator for subfunction 00h, and any non-zero return value in AX
	  as an error indicator for subfunction 01h

	the application should call this function before using any network
	  resources, and maintain its own count to avoid exceeding the
	  network's resource limits
